Goodbye 04-05-05
The second most common question was asked a number of ways
but they all went something like:
"What happened to your son?"
or
"How did your son, Bond turn out?
Did he appreciate all those
letters?
Did he take them to heart?
Did he become a success?
Did he just ignore them and go off
to
become a tattooed drug addict?"
The answer to that question is:
Bond Leads The Most
Well Balanced Life Of
Anyone I Know!
Here is Bond's situation today: He is happily married to a
woman he deeply loves. He has two beautiful and exceptional
children, one girl and one boy. He works pretty much when he
feels like working. He is not obsessed as his father was
with making millions of dollars. Bond has done well enough
for himself financially to lead a good, but not extravagant
life. But then again, Bond's not interested in an
extravagant life. He's interested in the quality of his life
and spending quality time with his family.
Bond's into hiking, camping, and something called
"geocaching". He is a student of direct marketing. And he
has had (with my guidance) enough success in that field to
live exactly the life and lifestyle he wants to live.
Bond has said he's VERY appreciative of the letters I wrote
to him. And although he doesn't follow all my teachings with
religious zeal, he does follow most of them... and... they
have helped lead him down the path to a happy, complacent
life.
One nice thing resulting from "The Boron Letters" is, he
(Bond) has already started writing letters to his own
daughter and son... even though... they are not yet old
enough to read them. Even so, one day he will have a
treasure trove of wit and wisdom to give them and leave as
his legacy.
